Brutal

Thankfully my husband has a thick skin and an understanding of fickle children who say exactly what they want with little regard to feelings. AB has had it tough recently. He is working his butt off at work and in studying to take the FE exam in 12 days, then our kids aren't much help with Skadi pushing a molar through and Leif being needy.

Skadi pretty much doesn't want to be in anyone's arms but mine and has mastered her mean look towards AB when he picks her up and she discovers he isn't me.

Enter our son last night:

NM: "Leif, finish up your ice cream so I can put you to bed."

Leif: "Is it your turn to do bedtime tonight?"

NM: "Yep."

Leif: "YAY MOMMY!" (AB off to the side looking a little hurt.)

NM: "But you like daddy to put you to bed too."

Leif: "No I don't."

Brutal.
